The Hammers go into another London derby in the space of a few days as they face up to Arsenal on Wednesday night in the English top flight. The Hammers got themselves a surprise victory against reigning Premier League champions Chelsea on the weekend to give themselves a massive boost of self-belief. That victory saw the Hammers produce their best defensive effort of the season after having scored early in the match.
The Irons held out to give new boss David Moyes his first win with the club but will they be able to back it up with a win in midweek as they host the Gunners? This is another tough game for the Irons and their mettle will be tested because they have lost five of their last six league games against Arsenal. That win over the Blues on the weekend wasn’t enough for West Ham to get out of the relegation zone and there is still little margin for error and they have the second-worst defensive record in the top flight.
Arsenal’s strangely lacklustre season out on the road continued last weekend as they needed a late equaliser from Olivier Giroud to get themselves a point down at Southampton on the south coast. So that leaves the Gunners with only the two victories away from the Emirates this season in a W2 D2 L4 record and they have conceded at an average of over 1.5 goals per game on their travels as well managing just the two clean sheets. But they do have tremendous head to head form going against the Irons and with West Ham still having to prove that they can get some consistency down, Arsenal will challenge.
